Embodiment Construction

[0012] specific implementation plan

[0013] Such as figure 1 As shown, the novel bioelectrochemical system applied to the production of tetramethylammonium hydroxide - microbial desalination synchronous acid-base pool is composed of four compartments, the four compartments are composed of bipolar membranes, cation exchange membranes and anion exchange membranes, Arranged in different order, four compartments are composed of anode chamber, acid chamber, middle chamber and alkali chamber.

[0014] The anode of the anode chamber in this reaction system is a carbon brush, which is placed in the matrix solution of the anode chamber. At the beginning, the electrogenic microorganisms are cultivated by inoculation, and then the electrogenic microorganisms will form a biofilm on the carbon brush anode.

[0015] The cathode is prepared by three-layer rolling, with a catalytic layer and a diffusion layer on both sides, which are respectively rolled and placed on both sides of the stain...
